Always Keep Active

There is a difference between physical activity and exercise. Exercise is actually a type of physical activity that is a planned routine. While physical activity is simply doing activities that increases your physical fitness and overall health.

It is important to stay physically active, which does not always entail going to the gym to exercise. It could simply mean, taking a walk in the park, going for a jog, hiking, skating, playing recreational sports, raking the leaves in your yard, shoveling snow, power washing your house, etc.

​I love cooking soups from scratch, even the broth. I had made some fresh veggie juice out of my juicer the other day and decided to use the leftover pulp to make a broth for my soup. The pulp was made from carrots, apples, ginger, and kale. This is a great way to use up the rest of the fruits and vegetables from your juicer rather then wasting it and throwing it away. And you can make one heck of a meal out of it!

​Lightly Sauté the peppers and onions, add pulp and then added 4 cups of water (Yield 2 Cups). Let the pot boil, add some salt and ground pepper, and lower heat to simmer. Cook for about an hour to let the flavors come out.

After an hour on simmer, add the potatoes into the soup and turn the heat on high to boil. Add the bay leaves. Once the soup is at a rolling boil, turn the heat back to simmer, until the potatoes are cooked (about 45 minutes).While they are cooking, add the dill, garlic powder, paprika, chilli powder, ground coriander, ginger and tumeric to the soup.
